Irish wine

Irish wine production takes place in a small number of vineyards and wine producers the majority of which lie in County Cork, Ireland, with Lusk, North County Dublin, also producing a wine named 'Lusca'.[1] Ireland is officially listed as a wine-producing country by the European Commission.[2] Ballydrehid House Estate (in Cahir, County Tipperary), Blackwater Valley Vineyard (Mallow), The Watergrasshill Vineyard (Bartlemy), Longueville House[3] (Mallow), West Waterford Vineyard (Cappoquin, County Waterford) and the most southern and longest standing Thomas Walk Vineyard (Kinsale)[4] all produce wine despite being well north of the area where the Vitis vinifera commonly occurs.[citation needed]
